To explain, this is from http://www.airways.ch/files/2003/060...airatlanta.htm

A line maintenance station has been established in Manston, UK, where light maintenance can be performed. Air Atlanta Icelandic did also set up a centralised warehouse facility for its stock of spare parts in 1999 at the former military airport, which is the location of the company's largest permanent facility outside of Iceland.

Air Atlanta had pulled out (or were forced out) of Manston prior to the start of EUjet services. Not sure what happened to the spare parts warehouse but they have now returned and, as I mentioned in my previous post, are operating out of portakabins alongside the terminal and currently carrying out maintenance on one of their 747s. To me it seems like another sign that things are on the up.
